Theler Wetlands - 2

             Preview

 

Hello all! I finally got my Thelar wetlands photos to post..however, I'm doing it in a roundabout way......whatever works.  I can usually find a workaround if I have to do it!   The dragonfly woodcarving really got my attention..it's huge!  Instead of changing my previous entry I've created a new one.   The lesson on these photos is to be early wherever you go because you will never know what you will find on the way to enjoy and learn from.  Even if you don't take photos...take the walk, explore the place, jot down some notes on your reflections,  journal about them.  I realized during this walk that even in the depths of a grey and wet winter, when the snow has melted, there are extraordinary things all around us.  I was open to them this day...I'm so glad I stopped.....took the time...such a simple little thing..only took an extra 30 minutes which I had because I was early!   What's in your area?  What paths have you yet to take?

I really do enjoy the wetland areas when I can find them.  The landscape is quite a bit different than you can find in other locations.  You are exactly right about starting early and taking your time soaking up the environment.  I have found that to take the "special" pictures, you really have to become one with your surroundings.  This takes time, and you need to pay attention to the sounds, smells, and general feeling of the area.  That combination will tell you how to take the photo to capture the ambiance, not only what you see.  Very nice entry.
